Today I got a phone call from a place that I applied for, and I got hired. I have been calling them and bugging them about the job, and Monday I was informed that they weren't hiring at the time, but Stacy called me and said that some people were quiting the day shift hours, and Doug was looking at my application to hire me. So I go in this comming Monday and finish fillining out the major paper work, and I start working at Harbor Freight Tools. I am so excited to finally have a paying job, because $ 420.00 from the state isn't enough to live off of for a month, especially with rent, bills and my daughter.
Second good news is, I called my new employment councler from Department of Workforce Services, and she said that because I'm a new client, I wasn't going to be put on phase 2 (that's when they take another $ 100.00 off my cash aid check) so instead of $ 220.00 for this month, I was blessed to get the full amount of $ 420.00. So now I can pay my utilities, and what I owe to my ex boyfriend for the memory foam pad he gave to me.
Third good news but scary, is that I got the results from my MRI from yesterday, and I was reffered to a knee specialist for minor surgery. I ruptured my major muscle in my left knee, and some other ligaments, and now I have to proceed with minor surgery. The scary part is the surgery, but I have to prepare myself for it, and know that my knee will be getting the medical attention it's been needing for a while now.
So yeah, that's how my day started, and I'm very pleased and feel blessed, because I'm finally getting on the right path to being a better person, mother and having a better life for my daughter and I.
